rise up

each time they rise up
they feel larger than life –
much stronger, more capable
of
destruction
and
lies
ς
it seems easier to procrastinate –
ignore they exist.
bury them deep in a corner –
no matter hard they resist
ς
they are ‘the fears’ deep inside
rising to the surface looking for light –
no longer wanting to stay buried
or
wanting to hide…
ς
so
the question remains –
how do i not yield…
how do i fight?

I start with prayer. I do not have much fight left some days, but He provides it for me!! Hang in there, Love.

Arm yourself with a bottle of Pinot Anythingio! All key maneuvers will naturally follow. :-p
Clearly I’m without a strategy here…
Hold to your Faith, K. All I know is, ‘this too shall pass’.
(((Hugs)))

This is a hard one, sometimes keeping them locked up does more harm than good, but of course you will have to be the judge. I truly hope that you can find the answer.

Interesting you are experiencing, as am I. Ps. 25 ESV I rarely quote scripture but OMG this spoke to me today….for I am lonely and afflicted in my mind!!!! This is the part that got me,
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
bring me out of my distresses.
18 Consider my affliction and my trouble,
and forgive all my sins.
19 Consider how many are my foes,
and with what violent hatred they hate me.
20 Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!
Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
I love the entire Psalm but I have been reading this everyday for at least 6 months and I feel better especially today there is more clarity for things. I love your writing Kimberly! Hugs to you and prayers.
